How do I get fingerprinted for a job?
The Sheriff’s Office provides fingerprinting to individuals who require this service for a job.
Fingerprinting is done by appointment. To set up an appointment, contact the jail division by calling 641-484-3760.
The fee for this service is $15.00 cash. Please have the exact amount as the Corrections Staff cannot make change.
How do I request a background check?
Complete criminal history checks are done through the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation (DCI). Forms can be obtained on the Iowa Department of Public Safety DCI website.
